Scoring:

Rally Scoring, a point is scored no matter which team serves -- If the serving team wins a rally, they score a point and continues to serve. If the receiving team wins a rally, they score a point and they get to serve.

Games & Playoffs:

Contacts:

Maximum of three hits per side
Player may not hit the ball twice in succession (A block is not considered a hit)
It is ALLOWED to play the ball off the net (except on a serve). It is a fault, if the ball contacts net or goes outside the antennas.
